Did you know that according to psychologists, family ties are critical for healthy development. Research shows that the quality of familial relationships has significant effects on well-being. Strong family ties support us under stress, help us process trauma, and boost our self-esteem.
Do you have 10–14-year-olds in your family? Are you ready to build stronger connections with them? Join the Strengthening Families workshop, an evidence-based program that works! We'll host your family at CCE Sullivan in Liberty for a series of seven, two-hour sessions. Dinner is included - no charge.
For the first hour, parents and youth each go with their own peer groups - then reunite for the last hour. Strengthening Families lives up to its name: families connect as everyone begins to understand the mysteries of adolescence and the struggles of being an adult in today's world.
Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County provides equal program and employment opportunities. Contact the office to request accommodations.
